ARTIST STATEMENT

Jennifer Bechem

I paint the vibe, the music, and the moment.

As an abstract expressionist I employ an intuitive algorithm so colors carry the weight of their subject. I like to say, “Each painting is a postcard from my spirit guide.” 

​

I love painting in public - cafes, parks, and happy hours - people just start talking to me and it’s exhilarating. They share their stories, develop curiosities, and provide a link between me, my art, and community.

​

As a painter, I love wearable art, and that's what Bespoke Tie Dye is. In general, Tie Dye doles out high-five vibes with out the physical contact, so I make and wear a lot of it.

I thank you for taking a scroll through the Color Chronicles I paint and wear.
